Master at Arms
My entry on this campaign will be a rarity one...it will bw displayed in form of a small vignete...
...well at, first something about the real one...take from Wikipedia :
Development of the gun began in 1927, by Rheinmetall. The crew was protected by an armoured shield. There was a mountain gun variant, the 7.5 cm le.GebIG 18. For transport, The mountain variant could be broken down into six to ten packs, the heaviest weighing 74.9 kg. The Germans would typically assign two of these to each mountain battalion. Six 7.5 cm le.IG 18F were manufactured in 1939. These were airborne guns, capable of being broken down into 4x140 kg loads. The airborne variant had smaller wheels and no shield. There was also an infantry support gun, known as the 7.5 cm Infanteriegeschütz L/13 which was designed as a replacement for the le.IG 18, this gun could be broken into four to six loads. However though prototypes were tested the German army felt that it did not improve on the existing design sufficiently to merit introduction and the army stayed with the earlier gun.
...some pictures of the real one...
...this is a Stalingrad picture...
...this time,a early version...
...maybe the reference of the my one...
...this one used in the cold weather...Russia maybe 1941 winter...
...now,my model itself,an old resin kit from KMC in the 1/35 scale...a figure from Stalingrad is a must in this small scene...
... a rounded woden base for this small vignete...
...and now,go to the work...one month to finish this new project...hope you like it!
